F.A.Q

KD - Is Kills/Deaths. This is no longer shown in-game anywhere but is one of the most important stats.

KDA - Is (Kills + (Assists / 2)) / Deaths. This is called `KDA` and is used in many FPS games, and the value we get from the Bungie API.

KAD - Is (Kills + Assists) / Deaths. This is found in the in-game emblem and is the "Efficiency" value after games. This values Assists the same as a Kill. This is found in-game, but not found in the API.

Using KDA is better because an assist is not as valuable as a kill (in our opinion). We have added KAD back though so you can see both.

Q: What is Elo?

A: Elo is ranking formula for determing skill. Bungie has no in-game ranking, so we are providing it for the community. We process every match played in Destiny 2 for every player.

Q: What factors does Elo consider?

A: Base Elo formula is solely based on Win or Loss. We use a modified version created by Nate Silver that looks at how badly you won or loss. A huge win will give you more Elo than a barely won game.

Q: I lost Elo because I got disconnected

A: Sorry to hear that. If your team lost you will still lose Elo. This is likely how an in-game system would work as well.
